How do we know the prophecy of Christ's return is true?

Answered in 1 source

We can trust the prophecy due to the certainty declared in God's Word, which cannot pass away.

The reliability of the prophecy concerning Christ's return is grounded in the assertion made by Jesus that 'Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away' (Mark 13:31). This declares the unchanging nature of God’s promises amidst the uncertainty often expressed by skeptics. The prophetic words spoken by Jesus reflect His divine authority and ability to fulfill what is foretold.

Furthermore, the Bible repeatedly emphasizes that God's declarations are not subject to human expectations of likelihood or reason. The prophet Peter cautions believers against the scoffers who question the promise of Christ’s return, urging them to remain steadfast in their faith (2 Peter 3:3-4). Thus, true Christians are called to believe in the truth of these prophecies without doubt, acknowledging that God’s timeline and purposes transcend human understanding.
